Murder Offstage

Listed in the Theater category on Art In Fiction, Murder Offstage  (2014) by L. B. Hathaway is Book 1 in the Posie Parker Mystery series. When Posie Parker’s childhood friend is robbed of a priceless jewel and becomes a suspect in a cold-blooded murder case, budding detective Posie vows she will clear his name. Aided by her assistant Len, Posie soon realizes things are not quite as they seem, and the darkly glamorous world of London’s theatre and glittering nightclubs proves far more dangerous than she could have imagined. Just who exactly is the dangerous Lucky Lucy Gibson? And who is it she has killed in the lobby of the Ritz Hotel? And more importantly, what on earth has happened to Mr. Minks, the much loved office cat? Cambridge-educated, British-born L. B. Hathaway writes historical fiction and contributes to several popular history magazines and websites. She worked as a lawyer at Lincoln’s Inn in London for almost a decade before becoming a full-time writer. She brings her love of detective novels set in the Golden Age of Crime and an obsession with English history to her own writing. Her other interests, in no particular order, are: very fast downhill skiing, theatre-going, drinking strong tea, Tudor history, exploring castles and generally trying to cram as much into life as possible.   Buy Now from Amazon
